Review

Let's pretend you wrote a book and your last name was Cleary. If kids liked your book, they would want to read more of them, so by having your books in the same place it would make finding them a lot easier.

Between

FIC and NF

How FIC and NF

Non-Fiction books are shelved by

their subject's category.

What is a call number?

L to R/

T to B

What does a

FICTION

call number

look like?

What does a

NONFICTION

call number

look like?

Fiction and non-fiction books are shelved this way so you can easily find

the book of your choice.

If they weren't shelved this way,

libraries would be in total chaos !
